Practice question: Power of the CTA to Suspend Collection of Taxes

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

  1. No; Rule10 allows a separate motion at any stage of the proceedings
  2. Yes, omission from the petition permanently waives it
  3. Yes, only the BIR may ever seek suspension
  4. Yes, evidence cannot be filed later
  5. Yes, the court loses every interim power after summons
